Born Andrew Clutterbuck in London, England, he grew up in Hull and moved to Bath at the age of 12. After leaving Beechen Cliff School, he attended the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA), where he changed his name from Clutterbuck to Lincoln. He made his first on-screen appearance in an episode of Drop the Dead Donkey.
Lincoln is well known in the UK or, at least his voice is, because he has provided it as narrator for Documentaries and for radio and television advertising as well.
But he rose to fame as an actor in the popular British series This Life, playing Edgar "Egg" Cook, before going on to star in the comedy drama Teachers (of which he directed two episodes in the third series). For this role as Simon Casey, he actually went to school for a couple of weeks to do research with his brother, Richard, who is a teacher in real life. He also has a lead role on as university lecturer and psychologist Robert Bridge in afterlife next to Lesley Sharp. He has also had movie roles, including appearances in 1999's Human Traffic and 2003's Love Actually.
On 10 June 2006 he married Gael Anderson, the daughter of Ian Anderson. At the wedding, Apple Martin (daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin lead singer of Coldplay) was the flower girl. Gael is now pregnant with the couples first child.
